Male Privilege, Codified

A great list from Alas, a Blog, which I discovered in this coddling thread at I Blame the Patriarchy. Mostly common sense* but it's good to see it all in one place. While men are active participants in all of this stuff, I think there's a distinction that can be drawn between public and personal iterations of male privilege - it's much more difficult to rectify the earning gap than, say, the division of household chores and childcare.

Living with my folks for a while has really made me examine Heckenrose familial labor relations, I'll have a post about housework when I get my thoughts together.

* "common sense" may not actually be common
